d33a962d07 Move /etc/defaults/make.conf to /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf as
discussed on the arch@ mailinglist (after repo-copy).

sys.mk will .error if it finds /etc/defaults/make.conf but include
it anyways (this is the same behaviour as with the make.conf.local
removal).

/usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf has BDEFLAGS commented out now,
since it's only an example file.

Adjust all textes that talk about make.conf or defaults/make.conf to
match the new situation.

roll dists.
2001-08-30 18:11:42 +00:00

5356254edb Overhaul this script a bit:
- build_x.sh now does all the steps to build an X dist rather than being
  a child script of package_x_dists.sh
- Update the usage information to list the ports you need to install
  before running this script as well as needing to set CVSROOT.
- Make sure CVSROOT is set.  If not, exit with an error.
- We now take two parameters: a work directory and an output directory.
  The work directory is used as scratch space.  All of the bindist will
  end up in the output directory.
- Only apply XF86.patch to the checked out XFree86 port if it exists.
- Use XFree86's build-bindist tool to package up the dists using their
  distfiles rather than using our own packing lists that have to be
  manually updated each time the port changes.

Example usage:
	env CVSROOT=/home/ncvs ./build_x.sh /usr/xtmp /usr/x11dists

1845f09c55 New release note: config(8) ENV. I put this under the "kernel
changes" section, but I'm not sure it's appropriate there.  config(8)
is a userland utility, but this is actually a "kernel" feature.  There
are release notes about config(8) in both sections, but "kernel" seems
more appropriate for this one.

d0b8716702 Try to make some sense out of the mess that used to be INSTALL.TXT.
1.  Bring floppies.sgml section in-line into install.sgml, where it
makes more sense.

2.  Slightly reorganize some sections of Installation section and
do some wordsmithing.

3.  Update distribution layout to reflect RELNOTESng and new compat
distributions.

4.  Update upgrade file list from 4-STABLE.

5.  It's been a long time since 2.2.X; get rid of instructions dealing
with "new" handling of compatability slices and fix up other references
in the text.

6.  Hunt down and kill emoticons with extreme prejudice.  Try to
tone down the use of exclamation points.

7.  Cross-reference new and improved Installation chapter in
Handbook.

8.  Add a proper abstract for this document.

d97e531329 Reorganization of FreeBSD README document. This change adds no new
content or whitespace changes; it just moves sections around for
better organization; the content of this file used to be fairly
fragmented because it originally was derived from parts of several other
documents.

The first half of "About FreeBSD" has been pulled into the Introduction
section.  The remainder of "About FreeBSD" plus the "Release Documentation"
section now make up a new <sect1></sect1> level section entitled
"Further Reading".

The two reasons for doing this are to:  1) Get rid of a bunch of

will be much simpler if all the content is in a single file.

I didn't do this when I merged the delta to RELENG_4 because I thought

per application which gets updated with the new version number, as
opposed to all the other programs, which get one entry per update.
However, the previous commit removed &merged; from the IPFilter entry,
